Clubs & Activities for Children & Teenagers in Wickham Market
Little Kickers at Wickham Market
Little Kickers have four different football classes each tailored to a different age group. Currently, two of these are available at the Wickham Market Village Hall on Monday mornings. Little Kicks (18 months to 2 1/2 years old) and Junior Kickers (2 1/2 to 3 1/2 years old). We have two core beliefs that we take into every session.
Firstly, we believe in something we call “Play not Push”. It means teaching football in a fun, pressure-free environment. We want to give children a positive introduction to sport as a whole, not just football, so they’re more likely to stay healthy and active throughout their lives.
Secondly, we believe football can be educational. Coached in the right way it can stimulate imagination and aid early development skills such as learning colours and numbers, following instructions and playing as a team.
Little Kicks class is every Monday morning at 9.30am
